I always enjoy just putting on some playlist or something on my phone and getting out for the morning. During the winter I enjoyed going just after sunrise, but these days that is like, five am, so I am usually just about to wake up.

But yeah, meditation, art, and such. I've gotten into drawing more recently, I bought myself a tablet so I can digital draw. Long stretches of time like that, are best spent with some sort of music, or maybe a podcast or something. Those are nice too

I'm a total sucker for video game soundtracks too, but I still have a healthy amount of non-VGM in my library.

The secret is to watch a lot of videos, and if you're watching a video and there's music in it that you like, find out what it is, who made it, and from there you can find out whether they make more stuff that you like. Then you find out what genre it is, and then see if you generally like that genre.

It also doesn't help to have some references from other people, either.

I've been into Moving Parts recently, and playing drums myself, I tend to be a little biased towards bands with good musical drummers...I do like a broad variety or music [spoiler="Lots of videos, if you're interested in what I listen to"][media=youtube]mPbVLJ5ga-M[/media][media=youtube]haAhtB3DChk[/media][media=youtube]UgK10xA0UwY[/media][media=youtube]Nl2GwLtMX7s[/media][media=youtube]xOPKiZtWNhs[/media][/spoiler]
